Many carburated “ dustrial engines simply don't deserve consume expensive fuel at an alarmini prone to break down or overheat aru. pectancy is measured in hundreds of hours. If any engine in the world qualifies as heavy duty, it's Deutz. Deutz engines are often chosen to power equipment with unit price tags over half a million dollars - that’s heavy duty. When it comes to colling efficiency, the Deutz prrecision-engineered axial-flow cooling air blowers have no equal. This direct approach to cooling (without coolants, additives, cavitation) means our engines need only about 60% of the air volume liquid-cooled engines require Combustion efficiency is greatly improved by higher head temperatures and engine life is extended by cooler oil temperatures. If you think air-cooled engines are prone to overheat, talk to Deutz users in the scorching heat of the Imperial or San Joaquin valleys. There, Deutz engines deliver more than 20,000 hours of trouble-free service before a maior overhaul SINCE 1955, EASTERN PA. DISTRIBUTOR RETAIL, WHOLESALE & O.E.M.

Things like blower design, big lube oil coolers, oil-cooled pistons, special alloy cylinder heads, a research and development team of more than 1,000 engineers. These are all important advantages. Still we say: If you can find an engine that uses less fuel than a Deutz -- buy it. 312 W. Main St. New Holland, PA PH: 717-354-4181 County shows and the Farm Show. - James Prey, son of J.
